God, I was just talking to a friend about this, and I actually came to the thread to post a related PP.

PP: People who exist solely to remind you how long It's been since you've gotten laid. There's this girl at work, super tall, eastern European, hot blonde. You know the type. She has all of these weird bear related nicknames for me, and most of them involve some form of physical contact. And she's always super touchy feely with me. And, before any of you say "go for it", not only am I not interested in cheating, but her boyfriend is in the army and is one of those people who has to duck to walk through most doors.

On the topic of being perpetually single, I have never been in a relationship. Ever. The closest I've been were a couple "I like you, you like me, but neither of us are going to say anything about it until one of us has moved on" situations. I mean, I like to think I'd be an adequate boyfriend, y'know? Yeah, I'm kind of a fatass, but I don't think I'm ugly, and I'm pretty fucking awesome. Shit, as much as I do just for my best friend, any girl who dates me would be spoiled as fuck. I love doing shit for people I care about, I'm funny(ish), I'm friendly(ish), and GODDAMN can I cuddle. I cuddle like a motherfucker. I'm all about that shit.

One of the worst parts, though, is when people come to ME for advice on their relationships. MOTHERFUCKER I DON'T KNOW. I HAVE NO EXPERIENCE IN THAT DEPARTMENT.

...-ahem- anyway

PP: I have worked 26 hours in two consecutive days, and I've still got three days left in this work week. I'm gonna be tired as shit. But that paycheck will be pretty awesome.

PP2: I've decided to change my diet and start getting healthier so I can look and feel better about myself. Part of which means giving up soda. Which means caffeine withdrawal from hell.

I've only been in one serious relationship where I liked the girl very much, and she liked me very much. We spend a week talking and yknow just generally being mushy and shit. And then she disappears, contacts me awhile later, apologizes for disappearing, and says she has issues to sort out and its best if we don't date. And then I never saw her again after that. Feels shitty, man.

One thing I say to a lot of people (who often don't listen but then years later told me that I was right) is that you must like yourself, and be confident and happy in yourself and being by yourself, before you will be able to find someone, or find someone that will last. If you enter into a relationship before you feel whole as a single person, then you will be relying too much on the other, and that's when things tend to not work out. At's least that is what I have seen and learned in my 22 years of being alive

We may fail alone, but that is better than dying with them, only to be forgotten. I for one, would rather suffer now, than leave this life without passion.

PP: Being in management when someone just isn't cutting it, and more importantly doesn't seem to be trying to. As their manager my only role is to help them succeed, but the odds aren't good. And it really sucks.

Good words of advice, Milly. Maybe if more people knew this, there wouldn't be as many divorces.

PP: All this talk of "being tired of being single" is reminding me that it took me two years (after having moved to this house) to finally make even ONE friend here that I can hang out with, but now my depression is slowly worsening that I just don't feel like doing anything with anyone in my down time.

I feel ya, Syn. I really only hang out with one person ever since I moved back home, and even then I'm not getting to see him much because work has gotten busier, and ever since he got his promotion, he works more at one of our other locations :/ My bestest friends ever live too far away. One I only get to see every other month, and the other is married and lives in another state, so...bleh.

PP: Someone broke my favorite purple lighter at work by dropping it, and when I stooped down to pick it up, my pants split up the crotch. Thank God I was wearing an apron all night.

I'd venture to say that my best friend is my former boyfriend. Or at least, I think I still have feelings for him, even though we've been broken up for over two-and-a-half years. Or maybe I just miss the feelings I had for him while we were still together. Unfortunately, he lives over a thousand miles away.
